Nick Saban’s morning routine includes two oatmeal cream pies and a cup of coffee. On Saturday, Oct. 10, he tried a version made by a Birmingham baker, live on ESPN’s College GameDay.
That baker, Kristal Bryant, brought a spread of desserts to the show’s set at Coleman Coliseum in Tuscaloosa. She posted a video of the momentous occasion on her bakery’s Instagram, which shows Saban indulging in her pastry while GameDay analysts Pat McAfee and Kirk Herbstreit throw pies into the crowd like frisbees.
